Private conversations

Private conversations

If I breathe my hopes and desires,

Would they mingle with your breath to gain new life?

Or will they just be the caress of the night breeze on your warm brow?

If I hum the song of my heart in your ears,

Would it mingle with your heartbeat,to make new melodies?

Or will it just be, tonight's lullaby?

If I tell you of my many dreams,

Would it become ours?

Or will it be tonight's fantastical bedtime story ?

Or by it's very nature, can it be,

That these private conversations,

Are the ones I must have ,only with me?
